From the Musical "Dreamgirls"

|
And I am telling you
|
I'm not going.
|
You're the best man I'll ever know.
|
There's no way I can ever go,
|
No, no, no, no way,
|
No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you.
|
I'm not livin' without you.
|
I don't want to be free.
|
I'm stayin',
|
I'm stayin',
|
And you, and you, you're gonna love me.
|
Ooh, you're gonna love me.
|
|
And I am telling you
|
I'm not going,
|
Even though the rough times are showing.
|
There's just no way,
|
There's no way.
|
We're part of the same place.
|
We're part of the same time.
|
We both share the same blood.
|
We both have the same mind.
|
And time and time we have so much to share,
|
No, no, no,
|
No, no, no,
|
I'm not wakin' up tomorrow mornin'
|
And findin' that there's nobody there.
|
Darling, there's no way,
|
No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you.
|
I'm not livin' without you.
|
You see, there's just no way,
|
There's no way.
|
|
Tear down the mountains,
|
Yell, scream and shout.
|
You can say what you want,
|
I'm not walkin' out.
|
Stop all the rivers,
|
Push, strike, and kill.
|
I'm not gonna leave you,
|
There's no way I will.
|
|
And I am telling you
|
I'm not going.
|
You're the best man I'll ever know.
|
There's no way I can ever, ever go,
|
No, no, no, no way,
|
No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you.
|
Oh, I'm not livin' without you,
|
I'm not livin' without you.
|
I don't wanna be free.
|
I'm stayin',
|
I'm stayin',
|
And you, and you,
|
You're gonna love me.
|
Oh, hey, you're gonna love me,
|
Yes, ah, ooh, ooh, love me,
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh, love me,
|
Love me,
|
Love me,
|
Love me,
|
Love me.
|
You're gonna love me.
